Hi again, If anyone had a problem with installing this wagon, in my reply above I forgot to mention about deleting the Blueprints.pak file. You will find this in the folder Program Files\Rail Simulator\Assets\Kuju\RailSimulator. A new Blueprints.pak file will be created next time you run Rail Simula...

Hi everyone, I have tried out a single line branch ending in a Portal, and it runs without any problems, starting from Platform 1, disappearing and reappearing at the Portal, and returning to Platform 1. Of course the AI train departed in one direction, and arrived back into the same platform in the...

Oh Happy Day! I think I've made a breakthrough! Early this morning I thought of yet another way to test the Portal Marker on my route. Run a train from the main line, stop it at the Junction Station, then get it to reverse down the double track branch, into and out of the Portal, but then terminate ...

Hi, I have just checked my downloads backup folder and located this wagon. It does not have a .rpk file so has to be installed in a different way. Go into My Computer and locate where your RailSim is installed and find Program Files\Rail Simulator\Assets\Kuju\RailSimulator\RailVehicles\Freight. Can ...

Yesterday I tried to save my first consist in accordance with the KRS Video. I saved it alright, but then the Scenario failed to load as soon as I came out of the world editor. After a lot of trial and error, and a night's sleep, I've sorted out where I was going wrong. When downloading extra locos ...

Hi again, Just a quick note, please ignore the paragraph in my last post about the Portal Marker 'Bristol' in the Bath Templecombe route - although the marker is beyond the end of the tracks, the little arrows ARE where they should be, on the tracks. I wasn't careful enough when I was looking at the...

Hi James, According to the KRS Video on placing Portal Markers, one marker is able to span 'multiple tracks'. When you have the little arrows in the centre of one track don't release the mouse button yet, but keep it pressed and drag over the other track, and then release the left mouse button. The ...

Hi Mark, Thanks for your suggestions. I have been very careful in making sure track directions and designations are not the problem. My Portals are both set up on double track with the portal's 'little arrow' markers dragged over both tracks. I think I will try a Portal on a single track section to ...

Hi once again, I had an awful thought this afternoon, 'am I using the right type of scenario?' I have only created Standard Scenarios so far, so I decided to try to do exactly the same again but as a Timetabled Scenario. There was one improvement, I did add the Portal Marker into the Stop At instruc...

Hi everyone, I have been trying out a Portal Marker on my fictional route. In the KRS Videos there is a short tutorial which explains that the mileage indicator is used to indicate a length of line which only exists 'off stage' from your route (e.g. a branch line which is only represented by a short...

Hi everyone, I have now been having a look at Portal Markers. Up until now I have been using Destination Markers on my Main Lines, and using them as the destination of my AI trains. When one of the AI trains arrives at the appropriate Destination Marker, it stops and simply stays there until the who...

Hi all, I have just been replying to another thread on this forum and got round to talking about RS documentation. I think one big problem with RS is that the documentation is too often intended for computer buffs or professionals who are experienced at creating their own track, buildings, etc from ...

Hi PW, Have you tried using the Generic Platforms in the scenery section, NOT the ones in the linear objects section. I used them originally in my first attempts at creating a route, and they did not have people on them then. You do have to use them as supplied though, complete with ramps and of a c...

The first thing to do is go to the official Rail Simulator site and download the Dev Tools (development tools) and the Dev Tools Documents. Read up the documents and you will be on your way.

Ah thanks for that info.
An invisible platform could be quite useful. Place a footpath alongside the railway line, and leading up to a station, then add people by placing an invisible platform underneath. Great Idea!
regards Ted.
